A couple of my cars have occasional problems with bulb holders for rear lights. The bulb may be loose or the bulb holder may not make good electric contact with the wiring socket. I do not have a real solution, but twisting the bulb and bulb holder usually makes them work again.
Sometime the bulb just burns out and needs to be replaced.

Our cars have a "bulb out light" on dashboard, this may help to diagnose.

Just for reference, some of the bulb light out only work when the item is used like brake lights.

The headlight switch is a known weak point on these cars and was subject to a recall. The dashboard lights are switched on with the light switch, but are controlled for brightness by the slider to the right of the light switch. I have the light dimmer slider fail on me or only work in certain points.
